🎉 $1,101,870 raised! 🎉

Thanks to the incredible generosity of Tractor Supply Co. team members and customers, the Spring Paper Clover campaign raised $1,101,870 to support local youth through 4‑H.

We’re especially grateful to the 4‑H’ers who showed up in Tractor Supply stores across the country, proudly sharing their 4‑H stories and sparking conversations about what’s possible for young people.

Funds raised through Paper Clover help create access to 4‑H camp and leadership experiences, empowering youth to build confidence, skills, and connections—so they’re truly for what’s next.

Thank you for making this impact possible! 💚🌱

"A single act of kindness throws out roots in all directions and the roots spring up and make new trees." – Amelia Earhart 🌳

Every kind word, gesture, or action you give today plants something that grows far beyond what you can see. Let’s start a kindness forest—one small act at a time. 💚🍀
